steamboatipe ON the Nile.

The steamboat method is unique, de.
scribing travel on the Nile. The post OF
captain is on the bow. On the bridge~the
second officer stands. Two miles ahead
the captain discovers shoal water and q
sand bar bent on mischief
The captain cries out; "Affa speedp'
There are no signal bells, so the second
officer receives the captains warning and
cries in turn to the pilot: "Affa speedi''
After mature deliberation the pilot shouts
down to the engineer: "Affa speedl''
The shallow water is entered by this time,
and the sand bar rapidly approaches.
Captain-"Wady easyp' Second officer
-''Wady easyr' Pilot-''Wady easyF'
Engineer-"Wady easyr' The sand bar
bravely stands its ground.
Captain top!'' Second officer
"Stopr' Pilot-"Stop!''
Passengers, one and all in unison
''Stuckr'
The pilot and engineer light their pipes
and praise Allah for his goodness, while
the small boats are sent ashore with ropes,
to be tied to all the fellahin farmers to be
found, to help pull the boat off-usually
an operation of six or seven hours
On such occasions the dahabeehist
wishes for wind A running boy'' is
often put ashore to run" to the nearest
telegraph station to request any steam
boat coming along that way to bring help.
Usually the running boy" is picked up
before he finds any help.
One of the sights of the return voyage
is the constellation of the southern cross.
If the manager of the boat is kindly he
will ring the dinner bell at your cabin
door when the constellation rises-say at
3 a. m.-and at the top of his voice shout:
Southern cross, please" And the same
Greek will at the proper time request all
to "remain perfectly quiet, for we are
about to cross the tropie of cancer. ~

A fine glass vase, just discovered in an
E~truscan tomb at Bologna, is Of a sea
green color, like a soda water bottle. thick
and Of a unique form. with two handles.
II is nine inches high and without orna-
mentation. There is not a single defect,
flaw, crack or chip about it. With it was
found an ivory chair, made after the
fashion Of a modern camp stool, having
all its screws and rivets still in perfect
condition. and a small casket containing
beads and some very elegant articles in
bronze. The articles are supposed to date
from the Fifth century. The tomb in
which they were found was closed at the
top by an enormous globular mass Of
stone as fresh as If it had only been fash

est and most valuable in the world,
consists of 10000 acres of the finest

thousands of head Of cattle and from

Drugging Criminals to Further Justice.
This study has become a passion among
medical men, who say il may greatly
help legal procedure, inasmuch As by
sending criminals to sleep and dragging
their secret from them while under hyp-
motto influence there would be little fear
Of Judges ~condemning the innocent for
the guilty. A theft in the hospital was
found u in this way by DIR. Marie, for
many wears DIR. Charcot's assistant. The
subject refused at first to tell where the
stolen object was concealed. After IA lit
tie diplomacy. however, on the part of
the Young doctor, who told the sleeping
girl he was the young man from whom
the card case had been taken and not TO
fear telling him where it was, she gave
the detailed account of having stolen it,
and told where the card cas- was to be
found. Dr. Marie Immediately went TO
